[Jabz]

It may not be the best fight however,don't call it the bust of the year.

So what fight with as much hype and is gonna be a 50 dollar PPV do you think will be less exciting? I don't think any of these other cards will be as tough to watch as this one.

[Mr. Ryan]

bump diggy bump!

This fight won't be a joke at all if Hopkins wins... especially if he wins by KO.

[Xcel]

to be honest, this fight does nothing for either fighters career status.

Tarver has nothing to gain, but Hopkins sure does.

I think going out the light heavyweight champ would be a nice epilogue to Hopkins' career.

I'm not sure why my computer popped this thread up...uh...I wasn't looking for it. I guess I'll just comment. The article was well written but, in hindsight, was way off. Bernard got physical with Tarver, cornered him on the ropes several times, and knocked him down. Hopkins won just about every round. Not hard to score at all. Goes to show you, once again, predicting boxing fights is often like trying to pick lottery numbers.
